Alveolar bone and related pathologies Flashcards
What forms the cribriform plate?
result of attachment of PDL fibers and passage of vessels and nerves into and out of the PDL
What does bundle bone mean?
refers to the bone in which Sharpey’s fibers are embedded
What is the Alveolar bone proper also called?
cribriform plate or bundle bone
What is woven bone?
immature bone in which the collagen fiber matrix is randomly oriented
when is woven bone formed?
newly formed bone or associated with healing wounds
What are the characteristics of woven bone?
-more cells per unit area than mature bone
-greater volume of non-collagenous protein
-forms more rapidly than mature bone
What is spongiosa? (cancellous)
trabecular bone that lies between the cortical plates and within the marrow spaces
What is the supporting alveolar bone made of?
facial and lingual cortical plates
-lamellar bone
-haversian bone
-interstital bone
What type of bone is this?
lamellar bone
what type of bone is this?
haversian
What is the make up of bone?
67% inorganic material
33% organic material
What is the inorganic material of bone?
Ca hydroxyapatite
What is the organic material of bone?
28% collagen
5%- osteocalcin, sialoprotein, phosphoprotein, osteonectin, BMP
What are all of the cells associated with bone?
-osteoblasts
-osteocytes
-osteoclasts
-bone lining cells
-chondroblasts
-chondrocytes
-mesenchymal cells
What is an osteocyte?
osteoblast that has been entrapped by it’s own osteoid matrix
What are canaliculi?
proccesses through bone that radiate in all directions and allow for diffusion of substances throuhg the bone
What is the function of canaliculi?
-connection to other osteocytes/osteoblasts
-allowing cell-to-cell communication
-may have some mechanoreception properties as well
What is the periosteum?
dense connective tissue bound to bone by sharpeys fibers that contain blood vessels, nerves, and three cell layers
What are the three cell layers of the periosteum?
-peripheral cell layer of fibroblasts
-intermediate cell layer of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells
-proximal cell layer of osteoblasts
What is the endosteum?
lines the medullary cavity and cancellous bone
-generally has the same composition as periosteum but is significantly thinner
What is this pointing to?
endosteum
What is this?
periosteum
Where is type 1 collagen in bone ?
ubiquitous in distribution
Where is type 2 collagen in bone?
primarily a cartilage protein
